		<description>Yay! Congratulations! I hope I can come to celebrate on Saturday. (not sure yet as it depends on timing of things and people on Sat.)

I think the first time I commented on your blog was when you were about to start or had just started grad school...

I just looked and found the post!
http://www.apartment2024.com/2006/08/28/goin-back-to-school/

I had a similar feeling with school, I went in to it having difficulty calling myself an artist and came out feeling 100% artist and everything else is secondary (career-wise that is). As far as anticlimactic endings go, I think I picked up my diploma from the secretary a few months after graduation. 
I'm all for anticlimactic endings as there is less of a jolt as you continue into regular non-student life again.</description>

		<description>Yes Yes Yes!!!! I'm so proud of you!  If only I could be with in Philly with you to celebrate. You know, I have never made a list of my top decisions in life but living in Philadelphia would definitely make the list. Lots of love.</description>

		<description>Congratulations on finishing the degree! I am in the throes of finishing my first semester as a grad student (I'm getting my M.A. in English with a concentration in.. rhetoric &#38; writing), so I've been very interested in your experiences.

I'm also horribly, horribly jealous that you're done and I still have a year and a half to go. Bah! :-)</description>

		<description>As someone who's admired your writing for a long while now, I believe your acceptance of your own identity as a writer is a greater accomplishment than the degree itself.

That said, congratulations on getting through the grind!</description>
